Description Matthew Conway CLA 2004-08-30 18:08:13 EDT 
It would nice if when comparing 2 resources in the compare editor, I could click
a button and get the actual textual diff string copied to the clipboard.  Right
now its frustrating when I do a diff and need the text diff because I have no
easy way to get my hands on something that is staring me in the face =) 
Normally I have to use the Generate Patch action to get the textual diff, but
even that doesn't work when I'm diffing 2 revisions of a cvs file, one of which
is not current to my workspace.
